Well kids don’t tend to be great at thinking about long term consequences or moderating their time spent having fun, so how would you have the lazy pencil pushers handle the problem of kids being distracted by games at school?
- safety1st 4y agoUsing Scratch to create programs is one of those cases where a kid can learn and have fun at the same time. Sounds like the best possible sort of activity to encourage at school. So what if the programs are games?
- bandyaboot 4y agoAbsolutely, creating games is a great learning activity for school. But, if it was blocked, I’m guessing the issue is that most of the kids were just using it as another gaming website—just playing games that had been created by others. But I’ll admit, I only have a general familiarity with Scratch. Perhaps the scenario I’m describing doesn’t make sense/isn’t how Scratch works?
